His work has been translated into a dozen languages and he has traveled worldwide to teach his brand of choice-centered evolutionary astrology – an integrative system that  marries grounded humanistic psychology and ancient metaphysics, placing them in the context of free will and personal responsibility.Currently Steven and his team teach online at the Forrest Center for Evolutionary Astrology. In 2018 he won the coveted Regulus Award for astrological education at the United Astrology Congress.Steven believes that Evolutionary Astrology is a celebration of human freedom, choice and imagination. He says that it is your “fate” only to face certain questions and certain possibilities in this lifetime. Beyond that, there is no use for the word. Skilled evolutionary astrologers are coaches, not prophets. They help you find your own path and they support you in having the faith and the confidence to navigate it. That is what he has dedicated his life to.Tune in and share all of your questions and comments about Astrology on our YouTube livestream or on our Facebook page. https://amzn.to/4jiH0sqhttps://amzn.to/3EcKNJ9https://amzn.to/4joKY32https://forrestastrology.center/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-conscious-consultant-hour8505/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking LISTEN TO SHERI HORN HASAN'S NEW PODCAST which drops today, March 14! This Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse opposing Saturn, the Sun, & Neptune—all in Pisces—reminds them that numbers don't lie and that you cannot ignore, or hide, or “disappear” the facts!Mercury's Virgo's about analysis and the Virgo archetype has a strong affinity for numbers, often as in dollars and cents. When we look at what's going on now in the U.S.--with an algorithm system having been given more credence than quality of life--we can see what kind of mess the U.S. is in right now. As jobs & services—particularly those related to health & human services--“disappear,” the Virgo Moon reminds the Pisces Sun that facts DO matter when it comes to quality of life.In essence, the Virgo Mon reminds the Pisces Sun—gathered together with rigid Saturn & often confused Neptune—of two things: 1. That you cannot ignore facts or make them up to fit your wishful thinking (or delusional) plan; & 2. That it's time to ground this plan in reality using a strictly analytical “just the facts, ma'm” methodology.However, this is not what is happening now as the U.S. governmental foundations implode under their own weight and the balance of democracy itself weighs in the balance. While everyone seems to agree that Virgoan efficiency is necessary to cut out waste & fraud, no one seems to have derived the proper methodology to calculate the correct numbers and to create a viable plan that doesn't shock everyone into a rebellious stance.Let's not forget that Mercury's Virgo rules the 6th House in what's known as the natural chart in western tropical astrology. And the 6th House rules service, health, & work, in terms of what we do on a daily basis. The Virgo Moon at this lunar eclipse reminds the Pisces Sun & his friends Saturn & Neptune that you cannot simply fire people en masse with little notice & zero compassion and expect a positive response.There is an irony at this lunar eclipse, however, which is that the Virgo Moon conjoins the Virgo SN at this lunation, which means it's opposing not only the Sun, Saturn, & Neptune now, but the Pisces North Node as well. And in evolutionary astrology, we are to move away from the shadow side of Virgo energy & toward the more empathetic spiritually healing energy for which Neptune-ruled Pisces is known.As evolutionary astrologer Steven Forrest put it in his recent newsletter: “…the south node of the Moon represents the gravity of old habits which are holding us back, while the north node symbolizes the remedy that can liberate us...Right now,” he continues, “the bottom line is that we are all collectively beginning to experience the pressure of any unresolved “Virgo karma” we may be holding onto--and hopefully looking to Pisces for some answers, resolutions, and a new direction.” But the U.S is experiencing now its already triggered Pluto return, which means we're in the process of evolving, though no one knows yet what this nation will evolve into. And right now we're at the beginning of a fight against the extinction of democracy as we've known it these past 250 years. With Pluto now transiting through Uranus-ruled Aquarius—both planets & sign representative of social upheaval—these next few years are not going to happen without a struggle to evolve. Why? In order to survive.What we know right now, according to traditional astrologer Bernadette Brady in her “Predictive Astrology” book, is that the theme of this series of eclipses—both this lunar eclipse now at 23'57” Virgo and the upcoming 9-degree Aries solar eclipse on March 29—is that they both involve physical change. We also know, as per astrologer Ronnie Dreyer, that the energy of the current lunar eclipse will be prevalent at least until the transiting nodal axis hits the 23'57” Virgo degree mark, circa early June. AND that, because the transiting nodal axis already hit 9-degrees Ares circa July 22, 2024, we've been dealing with this upcoming eclipse's energies since then.Find out more about these eclipses and how the Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse falls in the U.S. Sibly birth chart's 9th House of higher education & the 3rd House of elementary learning as the unelected billionaire Elon Musk & his sidekick President Trump seek to destroy the Department of Education now. And that's occurring as Mercury stations retrograde in Mars-ruled Aries March 15-April 7 (where he joins Venus retrograde in the same sign now.) The Virgo Moon's position in the U.S. 9th House of higher education, law, immigration, & religion at this lunation, along with Mercury's retrograde in the Sibly's 4th House where he joins Venus retrograde there augurs an ongoing & upcoming review of whether current policies protect our families—or harm them.This lunation is already giving rise to judicial reviews of 119 lawsuits filed against the government's current layoff mandates ordered under Musk's DOGE & the damaging off-and-on-again tariffs ordered by President Trump, and more. And given the current recession territory now entered into by the stock market--along with the attempt to deprive a green card holder of the rights to which he is entitled under long-established U.S. law, well, let's just say there's a lot of Astro News You Can Use goin' on right now! Check in at https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking for more on all this & a detailed look at the astro-effects as people begin to protest the dis-compassionate disappearance of jobs, good & services, & of legal rights by a government that doesn't seem to care what happens to its people. And how, if that's not a recipe for revolution…well…tune in for more! Namaste…

As Gemini season comes to an end, we must discuss Mercury, the Messenger of the Gods... All about connection & communication, language, thought, dissemination of information... We do our best to disseminate what we know and think of Mercury and its/his place in the astrology world, touching on: Greek, Roman & Egyptian mythology our charts, charts of people we know + a couple of well-known musicians with strong mercurial placements an herb to help with memory / sharpening the mind and whatever else came to mind. ;) ...all during a fun thunderstorm and super rainy day! - For our first year, each episode will follow the astrological calendar and focus on a different concept as our main theme. Our goal is for these themes to build on each other, creating a living library of astrological sparks or knowledge and curious confabulation about the celestial realm. We'll weave in elements of personal evolution, herbalism, and a look at a chart that aligns with whatever topic we're looking into that day.

Hello dear friends! Episode 296 of StarSound Speaks brings you an interview with astrologer Dan Guirchovitch, author of “Old Stars, New Light.” Nine years in the making, Dan's work is unlike any astrology book you've ever encountered — based on Dan's parleys with an other-dimensional being named Elias. Steven Forrest called it "wonderfully rich, complex and original.” For our episode, Dan takes us through all 12 zodiac signs and shares a taste of how Elias approaches each archetype. The book blends signs, houses, elements and nodes with tarot and runes. With advice from a higher dimension on how to approach astrology, this is definitely NOT your father's astrology education!

Capricorn Season theme is: Building and Aligning: Integrating Inner and Outer Life.  Welcome to the monthly call for the E3 Facebook Group: Energetic Explorations for Evolution. This group is open to women and men. If you would like to join us on Facebook, here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/energeticexplorationsforevolution/ Beth Shekinah Terrence and I started this group in March of 2023 and have used astrology as a way to set a container for a conversation. We pick a monthly theme using the inspiration from the current astrology and share that as a guidepost to explore your own life. The theme that Beth and I have chosen for Capricorn Season is  Building and Aligning: Integrating Inner and Outer Life.  Capricorn energy is structure, boundaries, hardworking, ambitious with patience and determination. The symbol for Capricorn is the sea-goat which gives it the ability to navigate material and emotional realms. It is a sign that is serious and playful.  This is a great energy to tap into as we begin 2024.  From an energy perspective, one of the most important things you can do this year is to commit to practices, tools and healing modalities that build s structure within.

ET!We'll discuss this upcoming lunation in the context of it as part of the November 13 Scorpio New Moon monthly cycle, the Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio November 17, the first-quarter lunar square November 20, the Sun's entrance into Sagittarius November 22 & square to Saturn November 23, along with Mars entrance into Sagittarius November 24 & his square to Saturn November 25!A look at what's happened during this time period helps us understand what might be yet to come—but also that it may not manifest smoothly, especially if we don't allow ourselves to understand where we're stuck in old philosophies based on old values that have led us to reject another's way of thinking or perspective.Sheri gives a multitude of example of the fall-out from the November 17 Sun/Mars conjunction in terms of astro news--& there's quite a bit of it! Plus, are we in for major health issues in the collective as Hygeia, the goddess asteroid of health, waxed at this Gemini Full Moon toward an exact square to shock-maker Uranus, still retrograde in Taurus?

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM FOR THIS & MORE ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE! All this as Venus transits through Libra, the archetypal deal- & peacemaker, & Mercury's in hyperbolic Sagittarius! As Mercury in Sagittarius sextiled Venus in Libra, we saw how both influenced Congressional deal-making, Biden's amicable meeting with Xi, & the announced release of an Ethics Committee report finding Santos violated campaign finance law.This Includes the relatively swift Congressional agreement on a continuing resolution to keep the U.S. Government open, the sudden negative turn-around of fate for NY Rep. George Santos, & President Biden's reestablishment of open lines of communication with China's Xi Jinping!On another note, since Mercury's been in Sadge (since November 9) & we approach today's Sun/Mars conjunction in Scorpio, we've seen an increase in over-the-top Nazi rhetoric out of the mouths of GOP frontrunner Donald Trump & his sycophants. We begin to recognize the symbolism of the concept of “hostage,” not only in the obvious situation in the Middle East, but the less obvious as well such as how Trump holds a high percentage of his base “hostage” through vociferously proclaimed authoritarian plans for if he regains the White House.We've seen also how the right wing GOP House members have held the rest there hostage to its minority desires, how AL Senator Tommy Tuberville holds that body hostage as he impedes important military appointment confirmations which only weakens U.S. military readiness for the rest of its citizens & the country as a whole, & how American voters have been held hostage to an “originalist” interpretation of a Supreme Court which recently released a “pretend” code of ethics as Mars waxed trine to Neptune…Plus, more about the Sun/Mars next two-year synodic cycle, & how Saturn in Pisces, now direct since November 4, is beginning to gain speed again as the flow of migrants across the southern U.S. are injured in record numbers falling from the border wall there resulting in broken bones, etc. On the brighter side, there's the movement toward a Hamas hostage release deal, the ratification of United Auto Worker's union contracts with the big three auto makers, & the conviction of the man who attacked Paul Pelosi, Rep. Nancy Pelosi's husband, with a hammer, fracturing his skull.Join us for all of this & more Astro News You Can Use as we approach the first quarter square of the monthly lunar cycle, the Sun sextiles Pluto, & Mercury trines wounded healer Chiron November 20, and Mars sextiles Pluto November 21, while the Sun ingresses into potentially more optimistic Sagittarius November 22!It remains to be seen whether optimism holds as Venus opposes Chiron then, & the Sun squares Saturn November 23, followed by Mars' entrance into Sagittarius & square to Saturn November 24 & 25, respectively. This kind of "stop & go" energy is likely to cause a good deal of frustration--especially vis-a-vis the Middle East hostage situation--so stay tuned!Check out “Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking!” latest podcast @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM, which drops today at 11 a.m. PT & 2 p.m. ET!

Mike Johnson, who was elected speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives by many who did not even know who he was as that Moon/Neptune waxed toward exact! AND whether or not he will last--given that the October 28 lunar eclipse squared his natal Leo/Aquarius nodal axis, as transiting Jupiter Rx's was waxing square to his Aquarius Sun. Transiting Jupiter Rx is also headed back to square his natal Nodes again by December 30 when Jupiter stations direct, so the question is whether Johnson will become a bit too big for his britches & his fixed Aquarius Sun's rigidly obsessive righteous right-wing ideology (as Pluto's conjoins his natal Mercury now) cause a fall from grace by then?Meanwhile, we discuss the sad news of Matthew Perry's death by drowning just hours after the lunar eclipse & how this lunation hit his 4th House Scorpio Moon/10th House Taurus Saturn opposition. Perry's birth chart shows his 1st House Leo Sun in square to his 4th House Neptune, a good aspect for an actor, but not so great when it comes to the potential for losing oneself to escapist addictive tendencies.Join Sheri to hear more discussion of these charts (& other partnership realignments globally as more nations pull their ambassadors out of Israel in protest of current events in Gaza), & the upcoming nature of Saturn's station retrograde November 4!And while you're there, don't forget to download your “How To Keep Your Sun Sign Happy!” astrological advice from renowned astrologer Steven Forrest!

When did this process actually begin? And when will it end? We'll look at the sensitized degrees—21 Libra & 5 Taurus—of these eclipses, when they were activated & when they'll continue to be activated again, as a reminder to listeners that it ain't over til it's over, as Yoga Berra famously said.As always, we'll look at events within the collective that reflect these eclipse energies (as above, so below, doncha know?) & discuss the importance of them for those with sensitive points on or near these degrees. Also, how things are moving quickly now given the waxing oppositions of Mercury & Mars in Scorpio opposing Jupiter retrograde in Taurus at this eclipse, which will be followed by next week's November 2/3 Scorpio Sun/Jupiter opposition! Tune in to find out more!Plus, we'll take a gander at the (untimed) natal chart of LA Rep. Mike Johnson, the newly elected speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. And, how remaining stuck in his “yes, now I'M the center of attention!” fixed Leo South Node opposed by his fixed ideological Aquarius Sun conjoined to his Aquarian North Node may hinder his karmic goal of working toward more humanitarian purposes as part of a larger group. (Hint: such inflexibility may prove difficult for him to overcome as he's forced to negotiate bipartisan issues such as the budget deficit deadline looming on November 17.)All this, and more astro news you can use @ KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM!

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN FOR A LOOK AT ALL THE “ASTRO NEWS YOU CAN USE “AT KARMIC EVOLUTION DOT COM TODAY OCTOBER 20 AT 11 A.M. PT & 2 PM ET!We continue to adjust to last week's quincunxes which caused sudden confusion about what's true & what's not, as we approached the Libra Sun/Mercury superior conjunction October 19/20. Join us to discuss the repercussions of this--not only on the world stage, but the U.S. domestic one as well--as situations continue to spiral out of control & partners cajole &/or bully each other into accepting their points of view as Mercury & the Sun square Pluto October 20/21.Along the way, we'll review President Joe Biden's chart as transiting Saturn sits on his 3rd House of communication's South Node, indicating the obstacles he faces & the hard work necessary to convince the world—and his own Congress—that he's committed to peace & stability everywhere.We'll also check out the chart of Congressman Jim Jordan—one of the founders of the GOP's Freedom Caucus in the House of Representatives—as he doggedly pursues his Aquarius Saturn/Mars/Sun fixed ideology via his Venus/Eris/Jupiter/Moon stellium in Aries. Do these perhaps back up current complaints that he's strong-arming fellow GOP'ers to vote for him as speaker of the House, including through the use of threats?Not an impossibility as Mercury & the Sun square Pluto October 20/21 & we experience the first quarter monthly square of the Capricorn Moon to the Libra Sun & Mercury enters Scorpio October 21. Financial solutions come into play now as Venus in Virgo trines Jupiter Rx in Taurus, & Mercury moves into Scorpio then, too. We can only hope to recognize the blunt truth as Mercury trines Saturn Rx October 22, the Sun enters Scorpio October 23 & then trines Saturn, too, on the 24. And that perhaps long-term future goals—and plans to successfully achieve them--will come into concrete manifestation by then.It's at the Taurus Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on October 28 that we'll be asked to release our attachment to the Scorpio Sun's propensity for a constant state of transformation (which looks to be SO chaotic right now given the prominent presence of Eris, the goddess of chaos, discord & strife, as she aligns-with the transiting karmic Aries North Node of destiny.) Right now, however, confusions still reigns.Join us for an enlightening astro-discussion of these current astro-energies!

  Astrologer Dena DeCastro returns to tell us how we can take advantage of two upcoming October eclipses to benefit our lives. In this interview, we learn that eclipses are not rare. We also learn why an eclipse is such a great device to use in Hollywood. According to Dena, “There is a spooky, supernatural quality to the whole idea of an eclipse. Something is literally being interrupted [in] the natural order, and it's a moment of pause. And you can look at that and be kind of spooked out, or you can look at it and say, ‘Wow! Isn't that the coolest thing ever, and I'm going to ride with that energy and do something productive with it.'” Visit BigSeance.com/232 for more info.

She has been a counseling astrologer for over twenty years and has been teaching astrology since the mid 2000s. She received her astrological training through Steven Forrest's Apprenticeship Program, and holds two Master's Degrees. Her articles have been featured in The Mountain Astrologer magazine, and she has appeared on many podcasts and local radio shows over the years. She also hosted The Sirius Astrology Podcast (2007-2014), one of the first astrology podcasts. In 2021, Dena and fellow astrologer Katie Sloan created the Let's Get Real Astrology podcast, which they co-host. She currently provides individual readings, as well as mentorship for those who want to learn astrology. Her new book, Foundations of Astrology: A Workbook for Beginners is available on Amazon and via her website denadecastro.com. :51 The last time Dena was on the show, Patrick pushed her into appearing LIVE for the first time. Has she been LIVE since? 2:42 Looking back on Dena's forecast for 2022, and a reminder that she does not predict the future in her astrology work! 5:05 A discussion on the unusual 1980 Horror/Fantasy Disney film, The Watcher in the Woods, starring Bette Davis, which features some really fascinating and dramatic eclipse themes. 7:20 Let's talk about eclipses! They occur in pairs, two weeks apart, about every six months. We have two eclipses coming up in October, on the 14th and the 28th! The current series of eclipses is in the Aries/Libra polarity, which began in April. We have a final Taurus/Scorpio polarity eclipse on October 28th. When an eclipse falls in the sign of the north node, it is calling us to aspire to move toward the positive aspects of that sign. This was the case with April's eclipse in Aries: the calling was to integrate the high side of Aries, because that is also the sign of the transiting north node. In contrast, on the upcoming eclipse of October 14th, the shadow side of Libra is more likely to show up. The invitation is to become aware of our own Libra shadow behaviors, and to release them. 9:17 Solar Eclipse and Lunar Eclipse 10:26 Patrick reflects on seeing and experiencing a solar eclipse in 2017 with an entire student body of a middle school! 11:53 The astrology of an eclipse and the transiting nodes. 13:20 The south node is where the shadow material coming up for the collective resides. 15:25 The upcoming October 14th solar eclipse will bring up an awareness and an opportunity to work through and to set intentions around doing good work with the Libra shadow. 16:06 Two weeks before and two weeks after the eclipse is the most potent window, and Dena likes to call the intensified period between two eclipses, the “Eclipse Portal.” Before October 14th — “What do you want to let go of around old relationship patterns?” “What new things do you want to invite in in your relationship life?” 16:50 The October 28th lunar eclipse. Wrap up things you've been working on regarding security, money, safety, and staying grounded. Acknowledge the work and progress you've made and release. 20:53 Purging and letting go. Dena uses Patrick, who is an Aries, as an example of how you can apply the astrology of eclipses in your life. “Were there any significant changes in the spring regarding vitality, health, creativity, or sense of self?” 22:40 Dena continues using Patrick as an example, looking at the Libra qualities in him (as that is the opposite of his sun sign). “Looking at the balance of your relationships, how is it supporting the new things that you've kicked off and started?” 26:25 Dena has succeeded at a daily meditation practice and is seeing the benefits! 29:24 We have even more eclipses coming up! Consider having a new or full moon ritual, or meeting with an eclipse group. 32:43 “There is a spooky, supernatural quality to the whole idea of an eclipse. Something is literally being interrupted [in] the natural order, and it's a moment of pause. And you can look at that and be kind of spooked out, or you can look at it and say, ‘Wow! Isn't that the coolest thing ever?', and ‘I'm going to ride with that energy and do something productive with it.'” 34:57  The eclipse in the 1985 film, Ladyhawke. 36:54 “Eclipses are not rare. They're a regular, cyclic phenomenon that we can all use and enjoy in our lives.” 40:01 Dena's great blog posts, and a recent Let's Get Real Astrology episode, that you can use as a resource! 42:50 Do you struggle to read or understand your basic natal chart?

What's the difference between astrology and astronomy? How astrology works: house signs Vedic astrology  Moon cycles: how the moon connects to our moods and intuition What is a natal chart? The sun, the moon, and the rising  What each of the planets mean/represent in astrology & how they connect to the zodiac signs Astrological progressions & transits interacting   The next few months are pretty intense numerologically and astrologically - they are important!

Happy Solstice, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa! - and a good old Happy Holidays to one and all this joyous season! In the skies this week: Jupiter re-enters Aries and brings an uncharacteristically jovian spirit to the Capricorn Solstice and the Capricorn New Moon. The Capricorn Venus trines Uranus shakes us up and freshens our outlook, and Mercury sextile Neptune melds imagination and reality. And April answers a listener's question about the out-of-bounds Moon. Read a full transcript of this episode. Have a question you'd like answered on the show?  Email April or leave it here!

Jupiter was in Aries from May 10 - October 27, 2022 before slipping back into Pisces by retrograde.  It will be in Aries until May 16th which is when it will enter Taurus for the first time in about twelve years. Jupiter in Aries asks us to take impulsive, pioneering risks of all kinds. [4:05] The Sun enters Capricorn (Dec. 21, 1:48 pm PST), marking the Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. [5:22] This particular Capricorn Solstice is energized quite a bit by the Sun's square to Jupiter in Aries (Dec. 21, 4:51 PM PST at 00°07' of both signs). None of us is getting any younger, but it's never too late for a fresh start. [6:45] On Dec. 22 (1:48 PM PST), Venus trines Uranus at 15°21' Capricorn and Taurus.  Welcome an unexpected adventure in flavoring your oatmeal! [9:56] Moon Report!  The New Moon at 1°32' Capricorn will occur on Dec. 23 (2:17 AM PST.) The Sabian symbol for this New Moon is 2 Capricorn, Three stained glass windows, one broken. This lunation also squares Jupiter in Aries. Don't be afraid to break things open and move in a new direction. [11:09] This New Moon initiates a new Lunar Phase Family. The First Quarter Moon of this Lunar Phase Family occurs on September 22, 2023 (29°32' Sagittarius). The Full Moon of this series is on June 21, 2024 (1°7' Capricorn), and the Last Quarter Moon occurs on March 22, 2025 (2°5' Capricorn). Check out this video to see where in your life you are planting seeds that will grow throughout this Lunar Phase cycle. [15:54] Void-of-Course Moon (VOC) periods for this week. On Dec. 20, the Moon 27°19' Scorpio sextiles Pluto (Capricorn 27°19') at 6:45 PM PST.  It's VOC for about four and a half hours before it enters Sagittarius on 11:13 PM PST. Be like Elsa and “Let it Go.” [17:54] The Moon at 22°44' Sagittarius squares Neptune at the same degree in Pisces on Dec. 22nd at 12:16 PM PST. It will be VOC for just about eleven and a half hours (!!!) before the Moon enters Capricorn at 11:49 PM PST. Nostalgia is in the air. [19:43] On Dec. 24 (7:11 PM PST) the Moon conjoins Pluto at 27°26' Capricorn.  The Moon will be VOC for about four hours before it goes into Aquarius at 11:14 PM PST.  Get cuddly with a hot chocolate, a fireplace ambience video and feel all the feels. [21:52] Mercury makes a sextile to Neptune on Dec. 24 (5:17 PM PST), at 22°46' of Capricorn and Pisces. This is an excellent opportunity to blend the pragmatism of Mercury in Capricorn with our imaginative selves. [23:26] Listener Robin asks about an Out-of-Bounds Moon.  Here is the link to Steven Forrest's article on the topic. [29:02] If you have a burning question about astrology that you'd like April to answer on a future episode, please leave a voicemail of one minute or less at speakpipe.com/bigskyastrologypodcast or just send an email to april(at)bigskyastrology(dot)com.  Be sure to put “Podcast Question” in the subject line.
